A new bill to allow people who are terminally ill to end their lives was formally introduced in the House of Commons on Wednesday, for the first time in almost a decade.

Sir Ed Davey has recalled the 'pain' of looking after his terminally ill mother when he was just a child as he called for more investment into palliative care. The Lib Dem leader told the Politics Hub with Sophy Ridge that while he welcomed a debate on assisted dying, he is 'quite sceptical' because of his own experience.

' The Kingston and Surbiton MP, who is now a carer for his disabled son, said he was also concerned about the 'psychological impact' elderly or disabled people may feel about 'being a burden on their loved ones', resulting in them agreeing to something that 'actually in their heart of hearts they don't want to happen'.
